Smoking Notes:
Before lighting up
There are some hints at a powerful cigar right from the cold draw: humus, undergrowth and coffee notes.
Burn/ Draw
The draw is quite tight, but this doesn’t hamper the smoking experience.
Initial third:
Right away there are some spicy notes on the tongue as you would expect from a potent cigar. After the initial burst of spices, the cigar mellows down to offer flavors of roasted hazelnuts. The strength is at a medium level. The ash holds on firmly at the foot.
Middle third:
Towards the middle section of the cigar, the flavor profile becomes more complex and offer a wider array of flavors, there are some freshly cooked multigrain bread notes, it is overall very enjoyable. The cigar is still very smooth overall and the smoke is thick and creamy as well. The ash is still holding on nicely.
Final third:
In the last third, some aromas that were only hints since the beginning are now coming to foreground: moist earth, leather are the most noticeable. Along the whole cigar, the burn was almost flawless, only required 2 touch ups. It gets a bit stronger towards the nub, as one would expect.
In summary: a great Nicaraguan cigar.
Smoking time: 40 minutes – 80 minutes
